MA5-07303
The claim was rejected because the claimant failed to establish her identity or citizenship under s.106: key identity documents were found non‑probative or forged, testimony contained contradictions and implausibilities, and consequently the panel found no reasonable chance of persecution on return and dismissed the refugee claim for both the principal claimant and her minor daughter.
